standup — facilitate a group chat between branch agents You're the facilitator . Each of the user's git worktrees (and any PRs they pick) joins a shared markdown chat as its own agent, and the agents reconcile their scattered work into ONE consolidated worktree. You convene the room, run the conversation in rounds, and carry the outcome back — the reconciling happens in the chat, between the agents. The room is one shared file (default ~/.claude mem/STANDUP.md ): YAML front matter holds the goal + prompt ; the body is the transcript. Writes are atomically locked, so agents speak at once. It is read only — agents decide how the merge should go; nobody commits or merges inside the room. Real git work happens afterward via /do . 1. Fill the room Two ways, mixable: By recency (common) — worktrees active in a window: Active = a commit or an uncommitted/staged/untracked edit in the window. If the user didn't name a window, offer 1h / 4h / 24h / 7d / all. By hand — specific branches and/or open PRs: Show one numbered list (worktrees + PRs, with age/title); their reply is the "checkbox." If prs errors (no gh / not GitHub), carry on worktrees only. Zero or one candidate isn't a standup — say so, offer to widen, stop. Otherwise echo the roster to confirm before you start. 2. Open the room Set a goal + prompt that invite a conversation, not one shot status reports: 3. Run it as rounds You drive the turns — if agents watch loop on their own the room can stall with nothing decided. Each agent speaks once per round (read → post → return); you read between rounds and bring back whoever's still needed. Spawned agents don't inherit CLAUDE SKILL DIR , so resolve it once and paste the real path into each brief: Round 1 — intros (everyone, one Task message so they run together). Brief each: You're <branch (a PR is pr <number ) in a standup group chat. Read <skill dir /agent brief.md and play your part by it. The room is ~/.claude mem/STANDUP.md ; speak with node "<skill dir /standup.mjs" post … , catch up with … read . Get your bearings ( cd "<path " , git log oneline origin/main..HEAD , git status short , git diff stat origin/main...HEAD ; a PR uses gh pr view/diff <number ), then post ONE turn: your branch, its real state, and how it should fold in. Read only. Then return. Reconcile. Once they've returned, read the room and list the open items — overlaps, conflicts, competing implementations, undecided target/order. None? Skip to the close. Resolution rounds (cap ~4). Per open item, re spawn only the agents it implicates, with the specific question. Tell them to read since <their name first, then post their position and agree if convinced. read again, update the list. Repeat. Close — you always write it. Stop when the list is empty, you hit the cap, or an agent errors (note "didn't report," don't block). Then write the SUMMATION yourself — don't wait for an agent to volunteer. Write it as plain prose a human can skim, not a field dump: which worktree is the target and why, the merge order in a sentence, and what's left for the human: 4. Brief the human in plain language This is the payoff — don't hand them the raw SUMMATION, translate it. A human who didn't watch the room should understand the outcome without decoding paths, line counts, or commit hashes. Lead with the answer, then the few choices only they can make: What you found — one plain line per branch: who has real code, who's just docs, who's empty. The plan — target + merge order in a sentence or two. Their call — only the decisions a human must make (which implementation wins, what to drop, anything risky), as concrete questions. Use AskUserQuestion for the clear cut ones. Keep git internals out unless they ask. Once they've settled the open calls, hand the plan to /do to perform the merges — don't merge anything yourself outside /do . CLI Defaults: agent = git branch, file = ~/.claude mem/STANDUP.md .
